Abstract

Receiving a dataset and parsing from the dataset an XP coordinate value on an x-axis, a YP coordinate value on a y-axis, and a ZP coordinate value on a z-axis all within a domain having 3-dimensional features. The x-axis and y-axis are perpendicular and define a horizontal earthbound main surface. The ZP coordinate value is on the z-axis perpendicular to the horizontal earthbound main surface. The XP, YP and ZP define a place associated with a 3-dimensional feature. Stored resource rules for places in the domain are accessed that indicate a first resource if the ZP has a first value, and a second resource if the ZP has a second value. One of the resource rules that applies to the place is identified based on XP, YP and ZP. A resource for the dataset is determined by applying the identified rule. The resource is caused to be transmitted.
